Not open to the public!! Well, if you book ahead, you can plan your industries next convention, plan your wedding, or even have an open wine convention! This is among the best places in France for any event that's under 1000 people. Pricing depends on what rooms you use ranging from 1500-5000k. The real savings come from not having to pay the Paris tax. Your guests will find accommodations and everything they need for a fraction of th price but the full French experience. This beauty of a building (in and out) functions both as a public convention center : job and university fairs, industry fairs (medical devices, even book swaps! Adult cartoon collectors, etc. Mostly aimed at attracting public interest.) Their industry tradeshows attract higher end products and services: (i.e traditional local restaurateurs, whiskey, energy, jewelers, fancy concerts etc.) TedxLyon has expanded greatly since the first Ted talks back in 1984. Tech companies are drawn to the unique space; Google Enterprise and the Euro-centric DINO are both annual attendees (2020 excluded). I've been in this building twice in my 8 years in France: both times, the building itself was more interesting and fascinating than the events themselves. Not to denigrate the events! I'm just being real, this place is stunning and has been maintained to perfection. "Renaissance Revival architecture" from the 19th century brought the amazing sculpted walls, gold and stained glass ceilings, marble etc. For the fixed rate mentioned above, your event goers will be in the halls that 16th century aristocrats or new world merchants made deals. This place being a stock exchange is crazy: there's more precious metals and stones decorating the place than many banks actually have on hand! This was built right before the industrial revolution really began to beat the "profits above everything/anyone" mantra into everyone businessman skull. A stunning piece of art no matter where you look *without* the staggering death tolls of the 17th century: if you get the chance, highly HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

An extremely beautiful building in Lyon. It houses the logo of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Lyon. When you travel around France, you see many similar buildings, all beauties. We can probably say that this is a French style. You fall in love with everything easily.

You can’t visit this place. It shouldn’t be listed as a tourist site. You can see if from the outside but you’re not allowed in.

Old commercial building. The garden next to it, really nice with couples of cafeterias.. nice for a break or having a meal over. Enjoy :)

Definitely one of the most beautiful buildings of Lyon!

If you're interested in architecture and arts, this is your place.

One of the most visually stunning buildings in Lyon and befits what I consider "typical" of stock exchange buildings and banks buildings in Europe especially France. This is a breathtaking example of Renaissance Revival architecture. It's currently the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Lyon. But also use for public events for hire. I haven't been inside but still admire its spectacular façades from the outside. It's easily recognisable if you are around Place des Cordeliers or even around Place de la Bourse and Place de la République. Absolutely worth A look. And if you are lucky enough to see inside, I believe it's even more stunning.

Good place to spend some of your time. I bet.

Visited for a wine fair. Epic venue.

Very majestic, sofisticated

It’s a beautiful landmark in Lyon. A former stock exchange building but I heard public access is not allowed now. Nice place for photos especially when they light it up at night

Nice conference palace

This is a cool venue where they host a variety of special events. It's easily accessible because it's right at the Metro A Cordeliers station. The exterior of this building is very beautiful.

Coole Event Location

Nice place. However, small rooms that doesn't fit for conventions.

Stunning interior.

beautiful and amazing architecture and history

The place is ok, but not very convenient for the people on the wheel chair as well as parents with young baby. There is a door for wheel chair, but it isn't opened, and you have to call someone so that the guard opens the door for you. One more thing, there is no places to change for the baby in the toilet. So, well prepare for that if you go there with a baby.

Nice event about silk. The palace is nice and it was a perfect surrounding for the event.

Super expo

A beautiful old building.

A wonderful Chaine des Rotisseurs black tie gala evening was most enjoyable.

Amazing historic building with great facilities for events. Definitely one of my favourite locations for summit over the last 20 years.
